Chelsea have addressed a number of major problems throughout their squad in the last two transfer windows, with a new player acquired in every position. Granted certain roles such as the goalkeeper and striker have seen additions for the future with Gabriel Slonina and David Datro Fofana filling those spots.
A lack of top-quality additions in both has come back to bite the Blues on numerous occasions this season with Edouard Mendy and Kepa Arrizabalaga sharing the gloves throughout the season with both struggling to hit consistent form. At the tip of the attack Kai Havertz, who isn't considered to be a natural number nine, has been the main recipient of the sole striker spot in the team.
Despite Chelsea's minimal goal tally in the Premier League where in comparison only seven teams have scored fewer goals than them, Graham Potter defended his team's lack of a natural forward up front.
